    Little Birdy told me that both thought they were better than the other and that caused dysfunction in the plant.. that's why they split...

    Yep, and they still do, the <20' Tritons are still made in the Ranger plant, the bigger Tritions are now being built at the Legend plant. Why there is so much demand for Triton is beyond me, I think they are #3 or #4 in bass boat sales. I rode in one marshalling and then a Nitro the next day and I preferred the Nitro by alot to the Triton the Nitros ride was even better. Mind you I've never much cared for Nitro.

    Johnny did not buy Legend. Johnny bought that state of the art facility that happened to be building Legend boats.
    That....is a fact.

    What becomes of the boat is still anybody's guess at this time.

    The letter sent to all the Legend dealers states White River Marine (Tracker marine) are now the owners of Legend, not sure how you came to your conclusion...

    He’s saying read between the lines. JM did not buy Legend to build Legends but to have the facilities to increase production of his current lines...i.e. Triton.

    Nowhere in that letter did it say I'm doing this in the best interest for Legend Bass Boats and our customers and Im extremely excited to be working with JM to bring you new Tritons...

    Maybe the 55,800 base price for a 20 footer with a 250?...Triton has been around since 1996 and has been a consistent seller. 22 years with a loyal customer base will sell a lot of boats. I fished quite a bit out of the early Tritons, nice boats, but I wasnt impressed how they held up long term. A five year old boat that had regular use always looked a little beat up.
